Hello Mountaineers. This week will be “Start with Hello” Week at Mountain Park to make sure every person in our school community feels supported, included, and cared for. Please look for a flyer that came home with your child to see the activities for the week. This week only, students who ride bus 36 will get home roughly 20 minutes earlier due to a schedule change. Tuesday is Constitution Day. Every classroom will be learning about the significance of the Constitution on Tuesday. There is no school on Friday, September 20th as it is a required staff development day. Looking ahead, our teachers are planning a fun day of learning on Friday, September 27th as we celebrate “Rock Your School Day!” We appreciate your support always.
Tomorrow our Start with Hello week starts! This is a great opportunity to talk with your students about the importance of being kind and welcoming to their classmates.
Next week we are celebrating Say Hello Week!

Who loves to work hard? Second Grade does!
We love the art work around our building!
On the first day of school, miss Norman’s class read the book Have you filled a bucket today? And learned what it looks like to be a bucket filler and a bucket dipper. Over the last 4 weeks they have been working to “fill their class bucket” by being kind, considerate and using manners. Today, they got to enjoy popsicles as a reward for filling the class bucket all the way up!
Good afternoon. This is Blair Lambert, principal of Mountain Park Elementary School, with an important update.
On Tuesday, our maintenance department determined that a PVC union coupling had failed on the water filter system at Mountain Park Elementary and would need to be replaced. The Surry County Schools Maintenance Team worked diligently to make the necessary repairs on Tuesday. The water filter system is working correctly and has been tested thoroughly by our maintenance department and the contractors who handled the installation.
Mountain Park Elementary School will operate under a normal schedule on Wednesday, September 4th.
Thank you for your continued support of Mountain Park Elementary, and we look forward to seeing students back in the building on Wednesday!
